PRAYING OTTER

This lil Praying Otter perfectly summed up how I felt at the time of drawing him. It was towards the end of 2014 and I was moving to a new home; I was praying to the gods wanting the madness to end lol

The original reference photo, taken by photographer Marac Andrev Kolodzinski, has a Beautiful Story Behind It :)

I had a cool experience at work while doing this drawing though. I was listening to some trance music and I very clearly in my head, saw Mr Otter come off the paper and start jumping around on me as I was trying to draw him. Then I looked around and my Art Studio was full of Otters lol

This is why I love Trance music, it makes your imagination go crazy! :)

Praying Otter Realistic Pencil Drawing by Transgender Artist Sophie Lawson
WINNER OF BEST IN SHOW • PLYMOUTH ARTS CLUB EXHIBITION

AS AN AQUATIC ANIMAL, THE OTTER IS A SYMBOL OF LIFE
WHY?
BECAUSE THE PRIME SYMBOLIC MEANING OF WATER DEALS WITH THE DIVINE FEMININE, WHICH IS A MAJOR LIFE-GIVING ENERGY. WATER (AND OTTERS) ARE SYMBOLIC OF CREATIVITY, FLUIDITY AND TRANSITIONS
